- 4 Q-2Economics deals with the question as to “how to acquire more and more wealth by a nation,” and “how to utilize this wealth for obtaining material gains of human life.” Explain in detail what are the various sources of income for Oman and how it spends the income for the development of the country. Q-3Provide a situation where “more than unit elastic demand” is shown. Illustrate your answer by presenting suitable consumer produc in a graph. I need answer for two 2 queation and seapachily for 3Don't use chatgpt and make sure you include the graphs needed (a) Suppose in a competitive market, the market demand curve for salt is infinitelyinelastic. What is the impact of a per-unit tax (i.e. a specific tax) on the priceof salt that consumers pay?(b) Suppose the demand curve for butter is Q = 50 − 3P and the supply curve isQ = 2P. Suppose the government announces a per-unit tax of 1 on the priceof butter. Tax on butter can be seen as a ’fat tax’. What is the overall effectof a fat tax on the consumers? (c) If you were a policymaker and wanted to promote a fat tax in the UK, whatwould you cover in your policy campaign?1. Assume that the demand for cigarettes is Qd=1600-30P and the supply of cigarettes is Qs=1400+70P: a. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity and show them on a supplyand demand diagram. b. Suppose the government levies a $2 tax for each unit of cigarettes sold.Draw this on the diagram and calculate the new equilibrium price andquantity. c. Calculate the price elasticity of demand given these two price andquantity points. Is the demand for cigarettes price elastic or inelastic onthis part of the demand curve? Interpret the elasticity in words (i.e. If theprices rises by 10%, by what percentage will consumption fall?) d. On a graph, identify the tax revenue generated by this tax. e. Indicate each area on the graph with a letter and show in a table theconsumer surplus and the producer surplus before and after the tax. Also,indicate the deadweight loss associated with this tax. f.

What is the price elasticity of demand at equilibrium? D. If there is a law that prevents you from consuming this good, how much should you be compensated by the government to accept it given the Consumer Surplus (CS)? Calculate.Demand shifts to P = - 2Q+260 due to an increase in the price of another good B from $20 to $25 E. Find the New Equilibrium, and Calculate the new Consumer Surplus and the Cross Price Elasticity of Demand. What type of goods are these?Label axis and curves. Determine if the situation is a Demand or a Supply and specify which non-price determinants is involved. Illustrate on the graphs: o the new curve, the surplus OR shortage created the new Price at the new E 4. Answer the following scenarios for each of the next Non-Price questions c) The Canadian Government just announced that they will help new start-up companies in the industry of recycling plastics by providing substantial subsidies. Market of recyclingMany governments subsidise electric vehicles. Draw two sup- ply and demand diagrams (one for electric vehicles and one for petrol- powered vehicles) to show the impact of an electric vehicle subsidy. As- sume that an increase in electric vehicles sales reduces petrol powered vehicles by the same amount. On these diagrams show: (a) The quantity of both types of vehicles before the subsidy. (b) The quantity of both types of vehicles after the subsidy. (c) The deadweight losses in both markets before and after the subsidy. 4. is a fuel excise or an electric vehicle subsidy a better policy response to address externalities associated with driving? Your answer should draw on the answers above and could also include: Which policy is simpler to administer.

- a. Assume that the elasticity of demand for Fanta is -0.5 while the elasticity of supply is 0.7. Assuming further that a tax of K10 is applied on each bottle of Fanta sold, how much of this will be borne by producers. b. Assume that the price of good X is K10 while that of good Y is K20. A consumer has allocated consumption between the two goods in such a way that the marginal utility of X is 15 utils and that of Y is 25 utils. Is this an optimal consumption bundle? If not, what should the consumer do to reach the optimum?9.
